I am using Lotus Notes R5 to create document library databases, and am getting a little frustrated with the online Help. I have two questions that I'm struggling with:
1) I have a field in the main document form for "Country" that the document relates to. Currently my "By Country" view lists the countries alphabetically. I would like to arrange the countries by Region (Asia, Africa, etc.) but do not know how to do this without adding an extra field titled "Region". Surely there is a way to tell Lotus Notes that Cambodia and China belong to Asia and Zambia and Zimbabwe belong to Africa?
2) I want a new database to have two types of forms: a main form for each project, and an "extra documentation" form (of which there might be many relating to the same project.) Can you help me link the two forms together so that the view will list the main form first (maybe with a twistie to expand/collapse) and then all the related documents underneath?
Thanks in advance.
Helen Carter.
PS: My employer is trying to locate some Lotus Notes Design training for me, but it's difficult to get something suitable when what's on offer in Australia is rather limited.
